Does this end all questions about Gore in 2008?

Posted by James Pindell April 19, 2007 02:36 PM

Recently released campaign finance records show longtime Al Gore friend and confidant Debby Butler gave $1,000 to Illinois Senator Barack Obama’s campaign.

Butler, a Concord CPA who chaired both inaugural balls for Governor John Lynch and one for former Governor Jeanne Shaheen, was a key player in the Howard Dean presidential campaign in 2004.

Even after attending a Hillary Clinton rally in Concord and calling her “terrific” it appears that Obama is her candidate.

After Gore won the Oscar for his movie, "An Inconvenient Truth," she called Gore’s office just to check in and make sure he wasn’t interested in another run. They told her she was free to go with another candidate.
